Home to host fine art class

For centuries, the healing nature of art has been celebrated around the world.

This January in Gananoque, residents of a retirement lodge and long-term care home will experience firsthand how art nourishes the mind, body and soul.

“It’s really freeing and beautiful,” says Instructor Rhonda Evans about Fluid Art. “There’s absolutely nothing you can do wrong. Anyone can make art.”

Speaking from Glocca Morra Studio in Kingston in early December 2019, the friendly woman smiles as she talks about the fluid art class she’s hosting with her business partner at Carveth Care Centre in early 2020.

“Liquid Glass has a mind of its own, it’s a beautiful pouring medium that does what it wants to do with a little help from class members,” says Rhonda. “It can be quite freeing as there is no skill needed to begin this journey.”

Called Liquid Glass because of the name of the acrylic pouring medium made by TriArt in Kingston, Liquid Glass is not actually glass, but has a glass-like appearance because it is clear and shiny.

“This is something that you have no control over,” says Rhonda. “You just let go and relax, it’s very therapeutic. You have very little control over this paint.”

Expected to be a popular class at the accredited home on Jan. 21, everyone who participates will finish with a one-of-a-kind picture.

Home praised for growth and consistent satisfaction rates

A long-term care home in the Kingston area is celebrating another year of positive reviews.

Speaking from Helen Henderson Care Centre in Amhersview in November 2019, Assistant Director of Care, Melissa Locke, shared the results of an extensive survey completed by residents and families.

According to the surveys, every family (of residents at the home) is satisfied with the medical care by frontline workers who are described as kind, caring and compassionate.

“Our Family and Resident Satisfaction Surveys allow us to reflect on the needs, wants and wishes of the most important people in the home, our residents,” says the friendly manager. “It enables family, staff and residents to work together to enhance our person-centred approach.”

According to the Assistant Director of Care, the home is constantly setting high standards and establishing best practices for quality control.

“We’re always trying to improve, that’s why we’re here,” she explains. “We want to improve the health of our residents, staff and families.”

Known for its beautiful gardens and innovative programs, the home continues to gain attention for its health care that is safe, compassionate and cutting edge.

In early November, the home won an award for business success by the Napanee Business Improvement Association.
